Sharpening hedgetrimmers

[Andy Collins]

After all these years of struggling to find someone who can actually do this properly, I have made do with files to keep the edge. But this is time consuming, laborious, tedious, boring, and I'm never altogether satisfied with the overall result.

So, I bought some diamond sharpening filing stones for my Not-A-Dremel, and I am chuffed with the results. Every trimmer is now cutting beautifully, I am well impressed with myself for my ingenuity. An hour well spent getting all trimmers back to perfection, happy days:thumbup:

I'm sure I've brought replacement blades for not very much money, 20 squid, or am I dreaming it? It was money well spent, I shall definitely be getting the dremmel attachments though.

The test of a sharp hedge cutter is conifer hedges box and genista. The gold standard.

Replacement hedge trimmer blades for £20!!!!! Stihl blades are about £180 for a pair, Echo are about double that, and Robin are treble figures too. Never seen any for £20. Okay, where from?
